Physicals were on Friday. Probably the last time we do the boys together….a little too much goofiness during this visit.
Not much to report other than the charts; boys both have asked to use the nose spray that I use to help with congestion/allergies….
There is nothing that is more consistent than Matthew’s march up the 90% height line
This chart made us happy; maybe it’s just part of growing up but Matthew seemed to bulk up over the last year; some limited diet control and a whole lot of soccer and he’s back again, to his 90% ways…
This chart doesn’t have those extra data points that the weight chart has….I’m not sure why the weight chart has those but I think they are from some of the doctor visits this year
This kid is still huge…and there is a growth spurt coming!
Cpher asked what the average kid his age looks like, height and weight wise. A quick look at the charts reveals, uh, 4’ 10”, 95 pounds….it’s Matthew!
This chart is troublesome and especially when the nurse says “wow, you gained 15 pounds this year” it’s not a good sign….but…
This chart is the only chart that matters for Cpher. The jump up in BMI a year ago was not good, but, this jump back below the line is good news. The doctor wasn’t too concerned about the jump last year, but, was pretty happy with the jump back down the chart (and really, it’s the relative movement between the lines not the actual measurement that matters the most here).
